The shell just now was obviously not the only one, it was only the beginning of the baptism of fire.

When 122mm grenades exploded around them, the only thing Lin Dong and the others could do was to lie on the ground with their heads in their hands.

On the battlefield, the lethality of artillery shells is divided into three layers.

The center of the explosion at the innermost point is the heat kill, and the instantaneous heat of the explosion can kill everything.

In the middle is high-pressure killing, while in the outermost layer is fragmentation killing.

When facing shells on the battlefield, if there are no fortifications or hiding places, then no matter who lives or dies, it can only depend on God's will.

And generally when encountering shelling, the first reaction of most choices is to lie down.

The main thing that can be dodged by lying down is the high-velocity fragments after the explosion of the shell.

Shells usually explode after hitting the ground, and then a large number of shrapnel fragments will be scattered upwards, and if people nearby lie on the ground, these fragments can be avoided to a certain extent.

Fighters who have experienced many battles can distinguish the caliber of the attacked shells according to their own experience, so as to judge the explosion distance and power of the shells. Then, based on experience, take shelter to protect yourself.

The five people of the dragon soul with such an ability naturally also possessed it. And their current generation belongs to residential areas, and there are too many buildings to serve as cover for them.

As long as they are not hit head-on by shells, then they all have a chance to save their lives.

Nowadays, the shock wave of 120 mm and 122 mm artillery shells in the world is mostly within 30 meters, and a 122 mm grenade falling within this distance will definitely not only be damaged by fragments, but also killed by shock waves.

Of course, if you are wearing protective clothing, such as body armor or thick clothing, as long as you are not hit by fragments, you can basically survive more than 10 meters from the explosion point.

But concussion, deafness, tinnitus and other sequelae are inevitable. People with a weaker constitution may also be stunned by this impact, just like Sona.

At this time, Lin Dong had already bandaged all the wounds on Tyrone's body, and the bleeding had stopped, but looking at his current appearance, he was obviously unable to act.

Ben had already pulled the broken stick from his thigh before Wall rushed over to treat him.

The blood went directly down the wound half a meter away, and Ben's face instantly turned pale.

Wall hurriedly took out a primary healing potion and injected him, then cut his limbs with a saber and wrapped them in bandages.

Sester lay on the ground, fiddling with the satellite map, trying to find a way out from above. Sophie had already come to Lin Dong at this time, and after seeing that he was safe and sound, she was obviously relieved.

In this process, the cannonballs fell one by one, and Lin Dong and the others felt that the ground under their feet never stopped shaking.

At this time, their ears were already filled with the rumbling sound of artillery fire, and the conversation between them was almost inaudible.

This is still because of the headphones that play a little bit of protection, otherwise they are almost the same as Sona and Tyrone now.

Fortunately, the opposite side obviously didn't know Lin Dong's specific location, but only knew a general target, so the other party could only cover it with firepower and could not achieve accurate strikes.

These grenades are shells that blow up the fuse.

Such shells explode only when they touch the ground. And the fragments of the explosion are scattered and there is a dead angle that cannot be hit, so now Lin Dong and the others are lying on the ground, as long as they are not hit by the shell, or the explosion is very close, the damage of these fragments can be ignored.

"The opponent has at least five artillery pieces, which are presumably 120 or 122 mm howitzers based on their power." Sophie said in a flat voice.

"Considering the equipment of the Zafik army, it is likely that the other side is using the M-30 type 122-mm howitzer equipped by the Soviet Union in 1938."

"How dare they shell, you know that there are still many civilians living here?!" Wall helped Ben to Lin Dong and the others, hiding in a corner of the ruins.

"Hehe, what would they not dare!"

Lin Dong smiled coldly.

"It's obvious that this is out of Zafiq's control area, and it can be said that the people living here have nothing to do with him at all, do you think they still care about the lives of these people?"

"But we and Nazafiq didn't kill our fathers and take our wives, did we? Didn't he even dare to let his artillery come and hit us when he was facing the enemy head-on, didn't he know that this would benefit the opposition guys? ”

Wall had murderous intent on his face, if Zafik appeared in his line of sight now, then Lin Dong believed that Wall would definitely use the sniper rifle in his hand to cut a few holes in his head!

"Seth, what do those Americans say, if they don't think of a way, then this rescue mission will have to fail!" Lin Dong asked Seth next to him.

"Damn, those bastards can't be reached right now. But they must have seen the situation here clearly, and the artillery positions attacking us could no longer escape their eyes, but I am not sure if they were willing to make a move! ”

"These damn guys!" Ben and Wall scolded hatefully beside them.

"Hmph, that's why these Americans don't want to send their own soldiers, right?"

Lin Dong said coldly.

"If it's a Delta or a Marine Corps that's trapped here now, it's estimated that the top brass of the U.S. military will be alarmed at this time.

But now it's just us mercenaries who have paid for money, so I'm afraid they won't even send a helicopter gunship! ”

As long as Lin Dong and the others did not leave the city of Sirte, then the helicopter would be very dangerous in the sky, and it was likely to be shot down by rockets flying from somewhere.

You must know that Sirte is not only the army of Zafiq that can attack planes, but even ordinary mobs have RPG rockets in their hands!

"Damn, we can't wait any longer, we're dead!" Lin Dong gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "Since they are unwilling to send planes, then we will come ourselves!" ”

Wall: Their attention was attracted by Lin Dong's words.

"Boss, you mean ......," Wall said hesitantly.

"That's right, use our own drones to end the opponent's artillery position, otherwise we will only be trapped here!"

As long as the MQ-9 drone in their warehouse appears on the battlefield, then it will not be able to escape the eyes of the Americans, and when the time comes, they will see a drone that is the most advanced in their country appear on the battlefield, but the person who controls it is not their own person, and it will be a big trouble at that time!
